Kentucky 2015 - Predictions and Results Thread

[user12345]

We're not even over 30%, let's not be hasty.

This, we knew this race was gonna be tight so letting early results dictate our predictions is silly.

RIP sanity in Kentucky.

So ugly.

God, we suck.

My gosh that is depressing.

Oh that's nothing- try comparing the House elections between 2008 to 2014!

First here's 2008. Map is from wikipedia so the colors are reversed.

Note Democratic wins in 3/4 of Mississippi, 3/4 of Arkansas, 3/7 of Alabama, 6/13 of Georgia, every district in New England, and all but three in New York. Total spread is 257 D vs 178 R (click map to embiggen)




And this is 2014, posted without comment. Spread is 247 R - 188 D (and again, click map to embiggen)

Gotta love ole Debbies strategy to success.

Someone on Facebook said that 17 Democratic members of the Kentucky House are switching to the GOP. If true, it would be dumb on their part, after the way the Republicans negatively campaigned against them.

Everything on Facebook is true

And got demolished in the rest of the county. So what?

Why are rural areas allowed to decide entire elections for urban areas?

Because their vote is worth as much as urban votes?
